As shown in FIG. 3, a mobile terminal 20 may include a light-transmission cover plate 21, a display screen 22, a control circuit 23, a battery 24, and a housing 25. The mobile terminal 20 may be different from the mobile terminal 10 in that the display screen 22 has a light-transmission area formed directly thereon. For example, the display screen 22 can be provided with a through hole 221 penetrating the display screen 22 in a thickness direction. That is, the light-transmission area can be the through hole 221, and a position of the through hole 221 may be provided with optical means such as a front camera, an earpiece, a sensor, and the like for facilitating signal transmission. The light-transmission cover plate 21 may cover the position of the through hole 221 or may be provided with a corresponding through hole.

In order to further describe the display screen 22 being provided with the through hole 221 to realize signal transmission according to the embodiment of the present disclosure in detail, a description will be given below from the perspective of a terminal display assembly.

FIG. 4 is a structural diagram of a terminal display assembly according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional diagram of the terminal display assembly of FIG. 4 in a P-P direction. As shown in FIGS. 4-5, a terminal display assembly 200 may include a light-transmission cover plate 21, a display screen 22, and a seal ring 27.

The light-transmission cover plate 21 can be a transparent glass cover plate, and may be fixedly connected to the display screen 22 by optical adhesive 211. The light-transmission cover plate 21 may be disposed to cover the display screen 22, and cover the through hole 221 of the display screen 22.

The display screen 22 may define the through hole 221 penetrating the display screen 22 in a thickness direction thereof. Specifically, the display screen 22 may include a sidewall 220 shown in FIG. 5, the sidewall 220 may surround to define the through hole 221. The number of through holes 221 may be one, two or more.

The through hole 221 may be a circular hole or a rectangular hole. The through hole 221 may also have other shapes, for example, the through hole 221 may be an irregular hole.

FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional diagram of the light-transmission cover plate in the terminal display assembly of FIG. 4 in the P-P direction. FIG. 7 is a stereogram of a light-transmission cover plate according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIGS. 6-7, the seal ring 27 may be disposed on the light-transmission cover plate 21, and located in the through hole 221. In some embodiments, at least part of the seal ring 27 may extend into the through hole 221 and being positioned in an inner periphery of the through hole 221. In some embodiments, the seal ring 27 may be made of a soft silica gel material, and may be fixed onto the light-transmission cover plate 21 by silica gel hot-press molding. The seal ring 27 may also be fixed onto the light-transmission cover plate 21 via glue adhesion.

It should be noted that the material of the seal ring 27 is not limited thereto, for example, the seal ring 27 can be made of a foam cotton material. It should further be noted that, in the actual production process, compared with the seal ring 27 made of a silica gel material, the seal ring 27 made of a foam cotton material may require a greater width and larger space. Moreover, as the diameter of the through hole 221 of the display screen 22 gets smaller, a sealing space gradually decreases, and space for receiving the seal ring 27 may be more limited. Compared with the seal ring 27 made of a foam cotton material, the seal ring 27 made of a silica gel material, may occupy less space to prevent dust and light leakage.

In some embodiments, a thickness of the seal ring 27 may be greater than or equal to a thickness of the optical adhesive 211, such that the seal ring 27 may have a light-shielding function, that is, the seal ring 27, surrounding the through hole 221, can prevent light rays of the display screen 22 from being transmitted to the through hole 221. Herein, the term “thickness” used here refers to a length of the component (such as the seal ring 27, the optical adhesive 211, and the like) in a direction from the light-transmission cover plate 21 to the display screen 22.

In some embodiments, the seal ring 27 may be a circular ring structure. More specifically, a transmission hole may be defined in a middle position of the seal ring 27; the transmission hole may be configured to transmit signals. It should be noted that the shape of the seal ring 27 is not limited thereto, for example, the shape of the seal ring 27 may be a hollow rectangular structure.

In some embodiments, a width of the seal ring 27 from a free end to a connecting end can gradually increase.
